~ At Home

Monthly Archives: March 2013

For Today’s KTime we are going to spend a few minutes paying attention to our finances. How much is in your checking account? Are your bills current? Do you know where they are? Even very bad news beats the not knowing. So fix a cup of something soothing and go see if you can afford a new dress for Easter or maybe just a fabulous new piece of costume jewelry.

Today let us plan on a warm tub soak with bubbles! Then a nice lotion. Then let us curl up under a throw with a pot of tea and read for bit. I have magazines, a couple of bound books and a Kindle all waiting for me. I am going to set out my bubble bath, my lotion and a fresh towel and I am going to go add a throw to my favorite reading chair and set up my tea pot. What a KTime to look forward to.

Today’s Focus: Grooming products. It is time to take a look at our grooming and or makeup collection. Is anything too old and needs to be tossed? Do you use what you have? If you tried something and didn’t like it let it go. Are you saving it for a special occasion? The first Sunday in March is a special occasion so enjoy. Do you need to stock up on basics like razors or lotion or sunscreen? Do you have a favorite perfume? Do you have some on hand? I know it can be expensive so start a pretty jar to put just your dimes in until you can afford a bottle. And then wear it every day!

KTime: A long soak. Take one of those scented soaps or bath fizzes or even some Epsom salts and have a nice long soak in the tub. Then use your fluffiest towel. It might just take the edge off of Sunday night blues.

Today’s Focus: Today it is time to clean out the car and the purse. It is embarrassing when our cars are full of junk and we need to give someone a ride in a hurry. Not to mention how much better we will feel in a clean and tidy car. So get the trash out, fill it up so you are ready for the week ahead and run it through a car wash. How nice it will be to get into that clean car with a full tank on Monday morning. Then clean out your purse, backpack, and whatever other tote bag you carry around on a regular basis. Let’s get the weight of the world off our shoulders.

KTime: Today let us spend a few minutes to start filling in those spring and early summer dates. Any March birthdays in your circle? How about spring break fun? Easter comes early this year. Don’t forget about any of those save the date notices you may have received for June weddings. Do you have your vacation time scheduled at work? Let’s start looking ahead so dates don’t surprise us! Get a nice drink and sit down with your calendar and start planning spring fun!

Today’s Yummy: Birthday Cake It is Dr. Suess’s birthday today. So bake up a yummy cake and invite some folks over for some silliness.

Today’s Focus: Time to take care of the bathroom mirror and floor. Just a few minutes and the whole room will feel much fresher and more pleasant for all who use it. Have more than one bathroom? Then pick one and just do it.

KTime: Do you have plenty of home spa items? A nice soak can solve a lot of problems. A nicely scented bath, a fresh towel, some comfy clothes and for me it is a nice transition away from work and into home and family time. Line up a new to you movie on Netflix and you are ready for an inexpensive Friday night.

Today’s Yummy: Spaghetti with Mushrooms, Garlic and Olive Oil. Perfect for either a quick meal for one or make lots and invite folks to join you for food and movie. Who wouldn’t like to get a phone call saying come on over?
